Re: [libreoffice-accessibility] More on selecting text with a screen reader

Edward,
While I haven't installed 4.4.1, I am unable to duplicate the issues 
where selecting text line by line isn't speaking the appropriate text 
using NVDA with Writer 4.4.0. This may not be relevant but I'm wondering 
which windows theme you're using. Just for kicks, could you go into 
Personalization or Change the Theme from the start menu and set your 
system to Windows Classic?
